This report addresses the development of a long range WSN that may utilize the
following types of radio technologies:

DASH7

UWB.

The report concentrates on:

Analysis of DASH7 technology status

Overview of the DASH7 standardization process

Layered structure of DASH7 protocol

DASH7 industry analysis

UWB standardization process

Current status of the UWB industry

Marketing characteristics of the UWB industry

Analysis of WSN specifics, particular long range networks

WSN industry and market

WSN applications

Specifics of long range WSNs based on DASH7 or UWB radios.

The military applications of DASH7 were prevailing till recently;
commercialization of this technology had started only a few years ago.

UWB technology is in a stage of temporary downturn (the report provides
reasons for this). The report analyzes standardization, technology specifics
and marketing statistics.

Both DASH7 and UWB radios are perfect candidates to build long range (up to
several kilometers between neighborhood nodes) WSNs. Such structures can
support the speed of transmission up to a couple Mb/s and may present valuable
solutions for many military and commercial applications.
